Here is kind of a tech help question. I have a friend who has a casio commando with Verizon. When he downloads music to it using Rhapsody, he can only get 3 out of 10 songs to play. The rest have some kind of DSM issue. He has to go into the files and delete the songs with DSM issue and retry the download. Even doing 3 at a time, only 1 plays and other two have to be deleted.
As you can imagine, for him, this is quite a headache. in a week he's only been able to get 30 songs on it. Also, the usb mode gets stuck or pops up with an error 1-2 out of 5 times when plugging it in.
My main question is: If this is a software issue, would rooting the device help? or is this a hardware issue?
I also suggested that he download the songs he wants, deauthorize them and then load them using mass storage. I don't know much about Rhapsody though but I suppose he could use a different player on ther phone.
FYI, I've done a handful of Google searches for this already and haven't found much. Thanks for all your help.
Casio Commando Drivers
Have you fixed the problem yet?
If not, have you installed the USB drivers for the commando? (they are attached)

Hello, I am seeking advice/help...
I can see by looking and reading some of your writings and posts that yours and others time is worth alot... I am not sure on how much I could spend as I have already lost funds and had my bank accounts hacked. However I will gladly see what I can do if someone can hopfully help me...
I have been without proper internet for well over a month now.. I have changed my wireless routers out twice even added in a AP(hardware firewall)... My internet provider also suppliea optik TV and that is all ran through the same router.
At first I noticed some new programs would appear, things would be moved around some things would go missing... it was very unnoticeable unless you were paying attention.
Then the windows start up acreen would freeze for 5 minutes sometimes almost as if somethinf had froze the screen so that I wouldn't be able to see whats happening(Basically started getting worse - passwords being changed on me etc... - would lose my elevated privledges almost as if I was just a guest account)...
I even tried using CMD in dos to get my permission settings back and at first this would work but then the dos/cmd commands(whoami / ICACLS / and a few other commands would not work and say they don't exist... I also started to notice the size of my harddrive change.. I was never able to get it back to the right amount of GB. I tried to restore it many different methods as well (win7, linux, dos) nothing worked.. I then also noticed the MBR would constantly become corrupt and same with the hard drive.
So I looked into things and figured it must be the bios or cmos.. I tried to flash it and just decided I would start from scratch... However, everytime the computer restarts the old cmos/bios is back. I then also found things saved on (A: , B: and X) ... They were all write protected so I decided to pull the hard drive out. They still showed up even if I had the hard drive removed.
** X: is the boot drive as well so every time I tried to reinstall anything a bunch of extra files would get installed as well**
**Drive B had a volume named RamDrive..**
I ran some system/ tests in dos on the memory and kept getting errors but would not tell me what the problem was I finally figured out that it was a system error because the range went higher(above the 4gb that it's supposed to be)..
Now 4 laptops ruined... I just got a new laptop (win8.1) was never used and had never been turned on and after the initial startup/setup had extra software etc and now is stuck in infiniti boot loop....
Also similar stuff has happend or is happening with fax/printer, pvr, tv, ipad, iPhone, Android, wii, ps3, ps4.. dvd player, basically all media devices and anything wireless..
I have seen lots of evidence on remote connections through IOT, P2P/PHP, IPv4, IPv6, ssl, http(local group/work group) now it seems like things are communicating through a technique called air hopping or coupling. (RF, NFC, WIFI, IR, GPS/GSM, RFID, Altel Bluetooth and a few others). **I can remove the wireless card and laptops still connect**
They even got into a desktop computer that has no wirelsss or bluetooth card... and never gets plugged into the internet. Odd internet type numbers started calling my house phone also my house phone if I unplugged it etc... then powered it back up and didn't set date or time it would reset itself... The play stations would turn on and off them self... I tried reformattibg and missing a huge amount of GB.
Also, money was taken out of bank account as well.... anyone who goes to where this all is happening there cell phones get infected tooo... it seems to update tbe phones in fhe form of a push update aka broadcast signal.. Any help or input would be greatly appreciated...
another thing i noticed was files like index.dat/index.ini... desktop.ini. doubles of everything in my registry... and the fonts i couldnt change or delete... i noticed files from other devices listed on my phones and vice versa for things listed on the computer... if this isnt the right place for this i apolohgize...
also it appears as if my phone is rooted.. judging by the files and folders that are on my phone but it says not rooted. there is apps installed that i didnt put there and cant remove without being rooted.. my phones are constantly connected. factory reset doesnt work anymore... Neither does wipe cache. also constantly streaming data even if data is off and airplane mode. i keep seeng something about a 299-amtel.. redirect in any and all browsers...lots of adware as well.
im not even sure i will be able to ge back on here... if not you can try emailing me [email protected]... i appreciate any and all help.. thank you and sorry for the grammer juat trying to type this as fast as possible.
Your MEANINGLESS title is discouraging people from helping you.
Please at least use a simple sentence to summarize your problem in your title.
Anyway from what you're saying, you should report to the police, or if you have some friend with network and PC knowledge, ask him for help.
WRONG FORUM AREA, MEANT TO POST IN GALAXY S7 EDGE. If someone could inform me how to delete this post, I would be grateful.
Copied and pasted from my Reddit post.
I've been searching the internet for a while for a fix on this, and there seem to be a handful of people who have had this issue in the past, but fixed it through varying means, from rebooting the phone, to full on factory reset. However, I'm not sure if I'm having the same issue with this phone. I'm new to Samsung, as I was previously an iPhone user for four years, and have simply imported the MP3s as they were onto my new phone.
I was listening to music the other day on my heaphones (if it matters, AudioTechnica ATH-M30, three years of age), when I heard a slight unfamiliar pop. It happened once and I brushed it off as a one time thing. Then it happened again about a minute later. It wasn't loud or anything, rather quiet if anything, but it still comes across to me as slightly infuriating. The pops usually occur from a minute apart from each other to 30 seconds. I tried switching from Google Play to another music playing application. Shuttle had the same issue, as well as GoneMad, and having PowerAmp (the one that's been told to have fixed this issue) produce the same issue had me come here.
I've tried turning the equalizer in each app to Flat or Off, if given the option. I've tried rebooting the phone. I've tried plugging my headphones into another computer to see if they were the problem, but the music was fine on the computer. By this point, I've tried everything I could possibly think of and every other possible solution given on other forums, yet to no avail. I would try converting the MP3s into WAVs or whichever audio file extension is recommended for this phone, however I found that not only my music apps do this, but other applications as well. Not too confident that converting them will help in any way. This happens with both my headphones (which are 65 ohms) and earphones that were provided alongside the phone (35 ohms). The one in the thread said it may have to do something with the impedance. Just adding this bit in if that's the case.
The reason that I'm so obsessed with this dinky little issue is because I listen to ambient albums. Randomly scattered snapping in the audio really puts off the atmosphere. I'm also an audiophile.
Is anyone else having this issue? If so, will there be a fix? Is there a temporary fix for now? Could it be faulty drivers, and if so, should I get my phone replaced?
Thanks for any and all feedback!

Hello everyone!!
I have got a P20 and everything was working right until yesterday that I realised I coundn't transfer files via MTP. Suddenly, no message about changing mode from charging to transfer when connecting the cable. I hard reseted the phone and it was working. Today, I reconnected it and the same strange behaviour occurs. The phone charges normally, though. Has anyone else this problem? It began to happen after some application updates I think.
Thank you alot!
Hi, I'm having the same issue, file transfer is VERY difficult.
Alternatively, I would have these issues:
- Phone doesn't even show in My Computer
- Phone will show but I can't browse its content
- Phone allows me to browse, I strat copying a file, then is stops randomly in the middle of the transfer. I have to unplug/replug several times for it to work poorly again.
I haven't managed to transfer several big files in a row with issues (like a full season of a show for example).
After trying with a different cable, it may be the source of the issue.
I was using a non-branded cable.
Hello, the same issue here.
P20 lite is in File transfer mode and randomly changes to Charging via USB.
I even switched off the display sleep, but without any success...
Please help.
Hi guys! I had the same problem and could not find a solution ... You will not believe me:
I searched different forums and videos on YouTube and tried everything without success (as it happened to you), I even communicated to HiCare via chat to inform them my problem and they made me do a factory reset, which didn't work either. Desperate, I contacted HiCare again and they asked me to give them my device and they would return it to me within 3 or 4 weeks!
I almost cried, in a last video of a old Peruvian man, talked about the static and how it prevents the electric charges of the phones, and can even get to charge (slow), but without file transfer. The solution: remove the battery ... obviously we cannot do that without going to the technical service and that gave me the last reason to send my device to technical support.
Buuuuuuut ... in another video a guy removes fluff from his cell phone with a clip or a pin to remove the static from his Motorola XPlay, I tried it on my P20 and I almost got a kilogram of fluff and dirt. Now you see the metal connectors (they were black) and when connected, almost magically, it worked! THAT WORKED!
I don't know what has happened to my old Lenovo Vibe X on Android 6.01 and how to resolve the issue without wiping data (no guarantee it would help - I'm now thinking...).
The phone is temporarily at my relative's disposal: i've switched to her Google account to let her use my old phone. She complained the call ring was very weak. I decided to change the ringtone, but I found out that I cannot do it anymore, the Media/Audio/Ringtones folder with standard OGG files is not visible (I cannot select ringtones from there anymore). "Other ringtones" option directs me to some installed Audio player, which does not allow to select any MP3 files in ANY folder (they cannot be played, because the player reports they are not added to Media storage). When I try to use "Scan media" option - it is just stuck. I've tried to use another programs like SD scanner, they either report Media database read error or finally report success status, however the audio files are still not playable.
I've tried to: clear caches (Android and Dalvik), disable / enable Media system app and delete its data.
I've also noticed that NOW my USB Audio player reports that HiRes DAC is not found (!) and does not want to play files in HiRes mode (through the chip instead of generic driver) - actually, my phone does have ES9018 DAC...
I am not sure this problem is related to Media storage, however all this together is very weird.
Any thoughts what could happen and what should I do?
How long was she using it and how good are her Android skills? May have caught a rootkit or virus. Anything below Android 9 is vulnerable to the Xhelper type rootkits that can worm their way out of the user partition. Real nasty critters...
If it just went nuts, I highly suspect malware especially in the hands of a novice user.

As @blackhawk wrote, the user may have infected the phone.
The only solution is to flash the phone manufacturer's stock ROM.
I will try to do this as soon as I get a chance, nowadays there is no other smartphone to use for my relative, so have to wait a couple of days.
BTW - regarding "HiRes DAC is not found" message... is there a chance that guys who replaced the battery in this smartphone soldered out ES9018 chip??

Likely a software, firmware or settings issue. Malware could also be the root cause for losing the high resolution DAC.
It's possible the tech damaged this circuit but probably not likely. Obviously if it was working before they got their paws on it then they are likely to blame.
